Bidirectional is denoting 2 directions, and does not mean reversed from western, I guess you could argue hebrew/arabic/etc is bidirectional if you count numbers as part of the language, but I think it's simply just a mistake to use that word in this case possibly.

Bidirectoinal languages are the languages whose writting goes from right to left (you start writing from the right of the page to the left), as opposed to the left to right writting we see in western languages (english)

Have you ever seen an arabic news channel, were the news text at the botton of the page crawls completely different as you would expect?? That's what i mean..
Bidirectional Language?
WHAT ARE THEY? - CRAZY / YZARC - ?YEHT ERA TAHW

why would anyone want bidirectional language?
Is that better somehow?
It seems confusing to me, like if you switched the road signs direction at whim.
